Crying
is For Babies:
In the 1930s medicine was
still very much a hit and miss affair. The surgeons were still experimenting
and learning about the human body. This at a period when there was little in
the way of pain relief.
This is one woman’s story
about a childhood ruined by such surgeons, whose bad judgement confined an
eight year old subsequently to bed for three years, and left her with a
disability to last a lifetime. Nowadays she would have been given bed rest and
pain relief, and in no time would have been up and running again.
Her strong will, and the
love of a close family, saw her through the bad times, enabling her to go on
and become the talented, remarkable person she was. I know because this woman
was my sister. http://books2read.com/Crying-is-for-Babies
Mystic
Mountains:
In the early 1800s the penal
colony of Botany Bay was an unforgiving and harsh place. Isabella O'Shea is
transported to New South Wales for wounding a member of the British aristocracy
who raped her, so it is understandable that she loathes members of the upper
class and the system that punished her; sentenced her to seven years
transportation.
Tiger Carstairs is rich,
ambitious and English-so is it any wonder she is determined to hate her new
master. Tiger dreams of making a new life beyond the aptly named Blue
Mountains, so called because of the perpetual haze of blue surrounding them.
Mystic Mountains is a story
of courage and persistence-traits that were essential for the settlers who
carved out a new life in a raw land where suffering and heartbreak were
commonplace.
Isabella and Tiger face
tragedy and many hardships in their quest for a new life in this untamed land. https://books2read.com/Mystic-Mountains
Distant
Mountains:
Even in the prospering
colony of New South Wales, it would be far-fetched to think a convicted man
could consider marrying the daughter of a wealthy property owner.
But Remy has larger problems
to contend with than Sara’s bigoted father. Forced to leave the woman he loves
behind, Remy faces overwhelming odds and an ordeal that threatens to strip him
of everything; his pride, his strength, his health—even his life.
Sara has many struggles of
her own and when Remy finally thinks he has a future with Sara within his
grasp, he is sent to a place where pain and suffering are everyday occurrences.
Will the lovers ever find true happiness? https://books2read.com/Distant-Mountains
